Neither the Chromecast nor HP’s printers were having a great week, as Pickr explained on ABC Canberra.
Technology usually works, but it doesn’t always. If you have a Chromecast or a particular breed of HP printer, this wasn’t your week, it seems.
Google’s Chromecast suffered an outage, making it impossible for owners with affected devices to get online and watch their shows, while some of HP’s printers also struggled to do the thing they were designed to do: print.
What’s going on, and what sort of fixes were available?
Pickr’s Leigh Stark joined ABC Canberra’s Georgia Stynes on the March 13 Canberra Drive program to talk what happened. Listen to it from the 1.37 mark (1 hour 37 minutes) before ABC pulls the segment down.
